Major: Secondary Education with a concentration in History

Final list of colleges: Cabrini, Delaware Valley University

Reasons for choosing Cabrini: “I was looking for a small Catholic school. Cabrini has a solid lacrosse team, they’re a small Catholic school and they have great secondary education programs.

What was the progression that led you to competing in lacrosse at the collegiate level? “When I started playing travel lacrosse in eighth grade, I realized how big lacrosse was, and I started watching all the lacrosse games, and I really wanted to be on those fields playing at that high level.”

Coach Travis Eckler says: “I’m relatively new to the Quakertown area. I moved down here from upstate New York, and if you’re familiar with upstate New York, it’s a lacrosse hotbed. Playing lacrosse for 32 years, I got to play at the highest level, and seeing where Chris is – he’s a very good goalie. He could have chosen anywhere he wanted to go. He’s a confident kid. Knowing my background, he challenged me to some shots in a practice – I was a goal scorer back in the day, and he must have read up on that and challenged me. He’s a great kid.”
